The final day of the second training session of Saitama Seibu Lions' spring training camp. Seiya Watanabe, who is scheduled to be converted to third baseman this season, worked hard in individual training with head coach Yusuke Torigoe. He carefully checked his control of balls batted down third base line. We look forward to seeing even more progress from this young lion in his second year, who was named to the Best Nine as third baseman at the Kansai Big Six University League.

pitcher Yutaro Watanabe started 23 games last season and pitched Maddux, his first professional shutout game. With the departure of pitcher Tatsuya Imai, he is expected to perform even better this season than last year, and he has been carefully checking his pitch data during practice to make adjustments.

A friendly atmosphere was also seen during the training camp. After pitch practice, pitcher Hiroshi Kaino and Takahashi Mitsunari pitcher off in a game of "Don Janken." What would be the outcome of the match?

In today's interview room, we welcomed our new foreign player, Hayashi Anka. He spoke about his life in Japan and his aspirations for participating in the "2026 WORLD BASEBALL CLASSIC™". He also revealed his interactions with Masayuki Kuwahara who joined the team this season as a free agent, and finally, he gave a message to the fans!
